Frog Patient Guide

A frog patient seen in mid-to-late shifts. Its small stature and large eyes are the key features to verify against anomalies. This page covers how to verify Frog before treatment, which anomalies imitate it, and the mistakes that get players killed on this baseline.

Quick answer: Small green frog with large eyes, sits low in the waiting room chair. Run the 6 identity checks below before treating; 5 confirmed anomalies can imitate this patient.

Appearance

Small green frog with large eyes, sits low in the waiting room chair.

How to handle Frog

Normal patient. Compare eye count and body proportions — anomalies mimicking frogs often have wrong proportions.

How to identify Frog

Work these in order. Each one is written for this specific patient rather than for the roster as a whole, because the feature that catches a fake Frog is not the feature that catches a fake somewhere else.

CheckWhat normal looks likeWhy it matters here
Eye countTwo eyesThe patient record names eye count as a key feature for this baseline. Counting is more reliable than judging size, especially on a patient drawn with large eyes.
Body proportionsThe documented frog proportions, with the body sitting lowThe record explicitly warns that anomalies mimicking frogs often have wrong proportions, so this is the documented failure mode to check.
Body colourGreen, matching the cat and frog baselines' shared colour familyGreen Cat and Frog are both green, so colour confirms you are looking at a green patient but does not by itself separate the two species. Use posture and shape for that.
Eye size against the pairBoth eyes matched in size and placementLarge eyes are part of the normal design, so the eye tell on this patient is asymmetry or count, not size.
Clipboard photoPhoto shows matching proportions and two eyesProportions are easier to judge in a still photo than in a live patient that repositions, which matters on the patient whose documented risk is proportion.
Camera feedThe whole frog is framed and visible, with the same proportions as the photoA small patient sitting low can be cropped or partially obscured on camera. If the feed cuts the patient off, change the angle before judging proportions from it.

Anomalies that imitate Frog

Five confirmed anomalies can present in a way that overlaps with this baseline. The tell column is the specific comparison to make, not a general warning.

Treatment path for a normal Frog

StepWhat to do
Count the eyes firstEye count is the fastest decisive check on this patient and the one the record names. Do it before anything else.
Judge proportions against the photoThe documented imitation failure for frogs is proportion, and a still photo is a better proportion reference than a live patient.
Fix the camera angle before trusting the feedThis patient sits low, so a poorly framed camera can hide the parts you need. Get a clear view before concluding anything from the feed.
Treat the named symptomFollow the on-screen symptom prompt exactly as you would for any other patient.

Mistakes that cost runs on Frog

  • Judging the eyes by size rather than counting them. Large eyes are the normal design here, so size is not a signal.
  • Concluding from a cropped or obscured camera view of a small patient instead of changing the angle.
  • Using size as a tell when the patient is naturally the smallest in the roster.
  • Confusing Frog with Green Cat on colour alone; both are green, so posture and shape are what separate them.

When you meet Frog

Frog appears in mid-to-late shifts and is the smallest patient in the roster, which has two consequences. The good one is that proportion errors are visually obvious. The bad one is that a small, low-sitting patient is easy to frame badly on camera — if the feed does not show the whole patient, reposition before you judge it, because a cropped view can hide the exact feature you are checking.

What we verified

  • Recorded with an explicit instruction to compare eye count and body proportions.
  • The patient record warns that anomalies mimicking frogs often have wrong proportions.
  • Cross-checked against all 18 confirmed anomalies: five are plausible imitators, including the eye-count and proportion entries.

This baseline was last re-checked against the live game on September 16, 2026. Last verified 35 days ago — re-check pending.

Frog FAQ

What is the main tell on Frog?

Eye count and body proportions. The patient record names both, and warns that anomalies mimicking frogs often have wrong proportions — so the eye count is the fast check and the proportions are the documented failure mode.

Frog has very large eyes. Is that suspicious?

No. Large eyes are part of the normal design. On this patient the eye tell is the count — a third eye, or an eye count that does not match the normal model — and asymmetry between the two eyes.

How do I tell Frog apart from Green Cat?

Posture and shape, not colour. Both are green, so colour only confirms that you are looking at a green patient. Frog sits low in the chair with the documented frog proportions, while Green Cat is a cat silhouette wrapped in bandages.

Should I worry about the Tiny Anomaly on Frog?

Only in combination. This patient is already the smallest in the roster, so an unusual size on its own means nothing. The Tiny Anomaly entry is identified by unusual size together with a high-pitched voice or multiple glowing red eyes.

What if the camera does not show the whole frog?

Change the angle or use a Deployable Camera before drawing a conclusion. A cropped or low-framed view of a small patient can hide limb count and proportion problems, which are the two things you are checking for.
